IV therapy delivers fluid and micronutrients directly into a vein, bypassing digestion. Clinics offer standard blends for hydration, energy, immunity or hangover recovery, and some offer NAD+ infusions, which run considerably longer and cost considerably more.
For someone with a diagnosed deficiency or a condition affecting absorption, IV delivery has a clear rationale. For a healthy person with an ordinary diet, the evidence that infused vitamins do more than an oral equivalent is thin, and the claims made in marketing are frequently ahead of it. It is still a needle in a vein, so who places it and how the clinic handles a reaction are fair questions.
What to ask a provider
- Who places the IV, and what is their license?
- What exactly is in the bag, at what doses?
- What is your protocol if someone has a reaction?
